Three questions

[HollowRiku13]

I've created a custom model in Google SketchUp 8 because I don't have Maya and SketchUp can export to .Dae, but when I try to open it with ModelView.exe to create the .msh it crashes with this error:

I do not know if this helps but I have Windows 7 x64 bits. I've opened the hpl.log and there seems to be nothing related to this error.

[DRedshot]

Amnesia uses a specific type of .Dae which is called openCollada. It's likely that Google Sketchup doesn't have the ability to export to this type.

[HollowRiku13]

Ok, SketchUp exports to COLLADA, it's different from OpenCOLLADA?

[DRedshot]

hmm. Not sure, I'd have guessed they'd be the same, but openCollada might be a specific type of Collada format. Someone else will have to answer that

Edit: Was the mesh triangulated before export? Or did the mesh have a really high polygon count? I can't think of many other causes of the crash, unless Google SketchUp just isn't compatible

[HollowRiku13]

Ok, I now I have three more things:
1. Same as the first post.
2. If anyone can send me the image under: redist/graphics/item/bone_saw via PM or this thread I would be very grateful, I made a mistake trying to do something, and well, save it by accident.
3. Another error:



It occurs when I select a map, only one, the others are going well, it loads a little and then it crashes with this error.
Here is the hpl.log:

-Yes, it's a full conversion, so the HPL isn't the one under Amnesia/Main
-The map has a weird name, like the other ones, which aren't shown here xD, this is to avoid errors of maps with the same names.

[Mine Turtle]

the editors are twitchy. id recommend for you to make your models in maya, or 3ds max, and export them as .dae's from there. otherwise you might have some unwanted issues.


there is a student version of maya avalible. its free of charge, with the exception that you may not sell your models or any other content made by it.

hope this helps, i really wouldnt recommend sketchup, but if it works for you, its alright. i just recommend maya if you dont want to struggle with modeling. ^^

[HollowRiku13]

I figured out the first one, now, I need help on the other 2 questions. Hope I'm not bothering much, but I don't want to create a thread for each question.

[HollowRiku13]

Anoyone know how to solve this?

[nemesis567]

Question 2.

For the third, try to remove hte map_cache and place here the new log.
